A train station, railway station, railroad station, or depot (see below) is a railway facility where trains regularly stop to load or unload passengers or freight.
It generally consists of at least one track-side platform and a station building (depot) providing such ancillary services as ticket sales and waiting rooms. If a station is on a single-track line, it often has a passing loop to facilitate traffic movements. The smallest stations are most often referred to as "stops" or, in some parts of the world, as "halts" (flag stops).
Stations may be at ground level, underground, or elevated. Connections may be available to intersecting rail lines or other transport modes such as buses, trams or other rapid transit systems.
Terminology
In the United States, the most common term in contemporary usage is train station. Railway station and railroad station are less frequent; also, American usage makes a distinction between the terms railroad and railway.
In Britain and other Commonwealth countries, traditional usage favours railway station or simply station, even though train station, which is often perceived as an Americanism, is now about as common as railway station in writing; railroad station is not used, railroad being obsolete there. In British usage, the word station is commonly understood to mean a railway station unless otherwise qualified.
Stansfield is a village and civil parish in the St Edmundsbury district of Suffolk in eastern England. Located seven miles south-west of Bury St Edmunds, in 2011 its population was 221. The village has an Anglican church dedicated to All Saints.
In 1870, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Stansfield as
History
In Old English, Stansfield would have been interpreted as ‘Stan’s open land’, referring to someone’s unencumbered and arable land in which they owned at the time.
Earliest History of Stansfield dates back to 1066 in the Domesday Book, where the value to the Lord was £3.50. The Lords of Stansfield in 1066 were Crawa, Edric Spud and Wulffled.
In 1831, the main source of industry in Stansfield was Agricultural labourers, followed by Retail & Handicrafts. The least common trade was Capitalists & Professionals. Labourers and servants occupied 81 jobs in 1831, 21 as middling sorts and 10 as employers and professionals.

The name of the line was derived not from a station or town but from the small colliery, signal box and line summit about midway between Rose Grove, Burnley and Todmorden.

Walking through the town where you live And I dream of another day Daylight failing over the railings Past your window As another dream in the railway station You're too late You're gonna have to wait all day now 'Cause no one else will help you Follow me to the seaside It's fine for a daydream They just let you down They just let you down Summer's gone incompletely You're no one, you can disappear If you don't try now If you don't try again On a sunny day I think It gets hard to remember They won't let you down They won't let you down They won't let you down Seen something you've done Far in a distance You're waiting and watching And don't think it's helping They won't let you down They won't let you down
